I could use some help with a documentation issue please. I have a physician that uses diverticulosis for dx when performing a colooscopy. Diverticulosis, 562.10, is nonpayable. I often will use signs/symp instead. He says to "default" to diverticulitis, 562.11, payable, which he never actually states in dictation. He always uses diverticulosis. Anyone feel that this is correct?
